Current slide {CURRENT_SLIDE} of {TOTAL_SLIDES}- Best Selling in Turntable Parts
I've been trying to make a decision on the purchase of a record clamp for some time now. Obviously everyone tells you their design is the best! Some seem to be ridiculously heavy, which I can't imagine does your turntable bearing much good. I liked the idea of the Revolution soft clamp so eventually made my decision. Used on my old Rega Planar 2, it certainly grips down on the record label, the sorbothane base seems to suck itself down and acts as part of the damping effect. Even my old cloth ears noticed the difference, bass is fuller and more punchy on rock music and vocals cleaner on melodic vocal tracks. Overall more musical and clearer. Definitely recommended.

Do not expect the mirracle. It is just the clamp. In some cases it may performs fine, but in most common cases heavy clamp performs better. And, by the way - "sticky" bottom collects dust.

I'd tried many weights (not clamps), both DIY (6) and purchased (3) on my LP12, with different materials and weight (between approx. 125g and 375g) over a few months. Although they do provide the musical plusses that they claim, on my LP12 they either suck some of the life out of the music, or make it sound a bit CD-ish. The Revolution Soft Clamp isn't a miracle or breath-taking, but it is so far the best compromise I have found for an LP12 (ie a suspended deck) that doesn't kill the mood. Despite what I've just said, I'm still pleased that I have it, and I have now concluded my experiment!
